About me

Hi I’m Jo, the friendly face behind The Shropshire Pet Companion.

Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve spent several years working with farm animals, gaining hands- on experience caring for animals of all sizes and temperaments. Since 2019, I have also volunteered at a local dog rescue centre, providing enriching walks for nervous and reactive dogs. These experiences have given me a calm, capable approach and understanding of animal behaviour; I know that every animal is unique and I tailor care to suit personality, energy level and needs.

An owner of a complex rescue Lurcher, Ace, I know that your animal is not ‘just a pet’, they’re family and you can be reassured that I treat every animal in my care with the same kindness and respect I’d give my own.

I am DBS checked, canine first- aid trained and fully insured.
